Course Description

• Quote Ephesians 3:16 –

Are you satisfied that you are living the “abundant life” Jesus offers? Do you “grow weary in well-doing,” regularly trying with all your might to resist the power of sin and live a good Christian life? Do you sometimes feel like only the strong-willed can be “overcomers”? Would you describe your Christian life as one of “rest”? Do you ever wonder if maybe we are missing something in the Gospel message that New Testament believers knew? If so, this course is for you. It is time for you to release Christ continuously, effortlessly and powerfully – to “abide in Christ” – to move from “self-consciousness” to “Christ- consciousness.”

The Great Mystery of the New Testament is that we no longer live, but that it is Christ in us Who lives His life through us! We are not expected to push the darkness of sin out of our lives, nor are we able to do so. Instead, we allow the light of Christ’s presence to shine in every area of our hearts, and out through us into the world. The supernatural power of God becomes the normal, natural life of the believer. (Prerequisite: REN103/503 Communion with God)
